Sorry it is only good for one new member. I guess I will try to delete this thread.

I hadn't heard of Robinhood so I looked around and found this

IPhone App Robinhood Luring Users With Zero-Commission Trading - Bloomberg Business
Basically, the article explains that this is a startup by two guys who think they have found a way to provide the ultra-low-cost (approaching zero) trades that institutions use to the masses. They have other ways to make money in their plan.

Although the code ERTX posted was used and is no longer valid, those interested can get more information and follow future developments directly at the site:

I got in line. Maybe 150,000 ahead of me? LOL.

I started reading more about it, and not sure. But I'll keep my ear to the rail.

I used your code, thank you, they approved me overnight.

Here are 2 of the 3 codes:

https://www.robinhood.com/signup?invite_code=ACFWJIZH

Let us know if you use them so others don't waste their time.

I offered my 3rd to a buddy if he doesn't want it I will come back and post it here.

You are most welcome, Mike. I really like my Robinhood account, so far and hope you do too.

Trying to keep under the SIPC amount, I have gone further and further off the beaten track to find accounts that I can max out.

I receive a code about once a month and will post my next one in this thread. Thank you.

 

[bythebay]

I just used the third code. Thanks!

I don't even have an Apple device. I am the IT dept so I borrowed one that was in inventory. I assumed I wouldn't get an immediate approval. I might have to get the cheapest iDevice to use this app. Don't know if I can virtualize iOS like I can Android.

They did a trial deposit to verify my checking account. Robinhood app requires iOS 7 or newer. The oldest/cheapest device that supports iOS 7 is the iPhone 4. Bought one on swappa.com in mint condition with Otterbox Defender case for $65 ship. Shouldn't be hard to make back the $65, was paying Vanguard $7 per trade.

Hey, I am only 141,234 on the waiting list. Oye.

Mine said something like that when I was registering but with the code it went through within 24 hours.

Ah, I didn't use one of the codes so guess I might get to trade in about 3 years.

I am pretty sure you still can. I think I signed up when I first heard of it.

I posted this in another thread. Just as good but they use batch (which I don't mind). https://www.loyal3.com/stocks Can do $10 to $10K per stock, per trading day with no fees.

Gotcha. Well, looks like they only use Apple for now, so I will be sitting it out until the Android version is released. I think that's odd even though they show "Google Ventures" at the bottom of the page.

In 10 trades it will pay for the iPhone I purchased. If you hit up your friends and family they might just have a iPhone 4 or 4s sitting in a drawer they would give you.

Will iOS 7 even run on my device? And will my device be able to utilize all of its new features?

First things first, the only compatible devices are as follows:

iPhone 4
iPhone 4S
iPhone 5
iPad 2
3rd generation iPad with Retina
4th generation iPad with Retina
iPad Mini
5th generation iPod touch

I am Anti-Apple but I am not going to cut off my nose to spite my face.

Daughter donated her 4s to me for many years of loyal service...
I just got an account. Even though 1 million were ahead of me, I shared their link to Twitter, and that moved me up very quickly.
Now I'll get the app and see how to fund the account.

 

[ExFlyBoy5]

They offered an account pretty quick with me even without sharing codes or what not. I think it was 2, maybe 3 days? I attempted to fund it through USAA but for whatever reason, it said there were no accounts associated with the USAA account. Not sure what that was about, but since my credit was/is frozen, it will take a few more days to approve the account anyway. Time to go find a cheap Apple device.

I would ask a friend or family member if they have a iPhone 4 or 4s they would like to donate or let go for $50. You can get a mint condition iPhone 4 on swappa.com for less than a $100.

None of my buddies wanted the code so here is my 3rd.

I have no friends, here are my three shares:

I orginally installed on a work iPhone that I had on hand. I just got my $65 iPhone 4 and installed the Robinhood software and it sent me another three codes.

https://www.robinhood.com/signup?invite_code=F4HXAPF4
https://www.robinhood.com/signup?invite_code=9DJT4UXG

Maybe it provides more codes every time you install? I also did a trade today so maybe that was it?

 

[mike143]

Got my mint condition iPhone 4 for $65, upgraded to most current iOS (7.1.2), used Pangu to jailbreak and install Cydia, installed Veency (VNC), now I can remote into the iPhone and don't have to carry it around. Note that if the iPhone is rebooted and not activated on a cellular network you will have to unlock before it connects to Wi-Fi.

I carry a Nexus 4 (Android) and I am generally anti-Apple, overpriced and pompous. I pay $7 to Vanguard for a trade and only trade at least $1k at a time to justify the trade cost. I could justify a Apple device since it will pay for itself in 7 trades and I can trade lesser amounts. I would use Interactive Brokers but not willing to tie up $10k.
